    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Sorry for delay, I had to solve an unrelated problem. I'm now back to this one. What I've done in the mean time: - I duplicated the server and I'm using the copy as my own test environment. That way I'm sure of not breaking anything in the current set-up. - My VLANs are working ok on my...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Sorry, i mis-interpreted what I wanted to say: ---- Server --- 5500G(1) --- 5500G(2) | | 5500G(3) ---- - I create my VLAN + VLAN interfaces (with IP address) on my 5500G(1) - I modify the current connection...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Sorry if I keep replying to myself guys! I just write as I discover stuff and try to make it as clear as possible for you guys to help me. ---- Server --- 5500G(1) --- 5500G(2) | | 5500G(3) - I create my VLAN + VLAN interfaces (with IP...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    I have a feeling I'm missing a static route somewhere. The 5500G(1) doesn't have any routes (apart from my VLANs). So should I add a route from 5500G(1) to DHCP server. Or add a scope on DHCP server for my VLANs? Also, if I connect a PC directly to 5500G(1), I get automatic IP and access to...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Thanks for the reply Vince. I did suggest them to have the ISPRouter -- Firewall -- Switch(es) configuration. But they want to keep it the way it is now. I did sort of assumed that the server was assuming the "router" role in the network. I can get my head around the logical concept of...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Ok, I did some progess in finding out details about how the network is set-up at the moment. DHCP Server (with 192.168.1.0 scope) --> 3Com 5500G (that connects to everything else). What I need to do is connect another 5500G (to the current 5500G). The different VLANs will then be connected to...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Also, forgot to mention. At the moment I would just like to be able to ping my vlans from outside. I am ok with manually assigning my VLAN PCs with IPs. I was planning on working with the DHCP after I could at least ping my VLANS from outside.

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Thanks Vince. I have done that on paper (a few times already). But maybe I'm going the wrong way about it since I wrote/drew down what I wanted to happen.... The way the network works now is ISP --- Server --- Switch (5500G#3) If I plug a computer in the 5500G#3 (which is already configured...

    3com 5500G - VLAN routing

    Hi all, I have two 3com 5500G that I need to configure for VLAN (with possible additional 5500g coming in the future). My understanding is that 5500G can do layer 3 and therefore can act as a router (for VLAN purposes). Right? The network in the office is currently configured by sending...
